***Official Caucasian Rapper Thread*** (1 Viewer)

Most white rappers are boring. Macklemore from your list actually is a little bit interesting. Freestyling while making pancakes or rapping through a computer while urging girls to kiss seems like a novelty to me at best.

 
Why does there need to be a new thread for this?Seems like there are a lot of mediocre white rappers who can trade on being white and their marginal skills to take a shot at mainstream success.

 
Not even looking at the links. 99% chance of them all sucking.
Macklemore's Thrift Shop is my favorite song of 2012.
I like the Thrift Shop song I like the use of the horns on that track his flow is nice and it makes me laugh It’s a very off beat (and refreshing) concept to make a rap song about shopping at a thrift store

He has another track that I like it’s called Same Love. He has some very nice lyrics on this track “….. here we go America the brave still fears what we don’t know…”

I was really impressed with him when I first heard this song. Pretty taboo topic in hip-hop and I guess American culture in general.

Mr. Eon belongs on that list, IMO. Andy Cooper of Ugly Duckling is a pretty great lyricist:
(Diz is good too, but I'm sure most would find him "whiney")There are a ton of good white rappers from the UK; Jehst and the kids from Split Prophets are probably the best.

I don't hate High and Mighty by any means but Eon largely seems to just be a cool voice to me. I liked him most on the Smut Peddlers record with Cage.
 
Esoteric certainly has his moments.
If you want to call them that.
Absolutely couldn't stand him when I first heard him. He raps like a robot. His cameo on the Nineteen Ninety Now LP was pretty nice though. Maybe he's gotten better with age. 7L is a fantastic producer though.
I get what you are saying. His solo stuff can be droning as there is not enough variation. But in guest spots with the right beat, I think he is very nice, like the one you mentioned and his stuff on Violent By Design.
 
I'm pretty sure Vanilla Ice killed the white rapper genre. At the very least, he's the reason they get little respect.
